When NOT to use camunda
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- - Avoid if the project requires non-BPMN process models or languages that are not natively supported within Camunda's framework
- - Not suitable for teams looking to minimize technology stack, as its ecosystem includes several components like Zeebe, Operate, Tasklist which might increase complexity
